Well at least the first half of 2009 went by quickly . . .

July 3rd, 2009

Anything to cheer about now that the first half of 2009 is in the bag?  Honestly, not really but at least we can say that some private equity m&a did occur.

Lookin’ at the number of buy-side transactions at some of the big firms yields the following . . .

Firm # of Announced/Closed Transactions-Q1/Q2-2009  
KKR 1 In Bev divestiture
Sun Capital 3 2 add-ons, 1 re-acquisition (not sure what to call Big 10 deal)
Blackstone 1 $40 million transaction - smallest deal since 2004
Carlyle Group 1 German acquisition
Clayton Dubilier & Rice 0 still swallowing HD Supply
SilverLake 1 SilverLake Sumeru deal
Francisco Partners 1 par for course
TA Associates 0 6 in 2008
Apax Partners 0 not far off the pace
CINVEN 0 last deals - 2 in Aug 2008
Candover 0 Brits not doing much better
CVC Capital Partners 0 6 in 2008
Warburg Pincus 3 tied for lead in this list
TPG 0 little more gun shy this year
Permira 1 €2.5 billion deal
